    Hey!

    I currently drive a 02 Toyota Yaris, 5 door, 1ltr.
    I'm looking for a new car.

    The thing is, I want buy a new car this year, so I can consentrate on some big savings next year.

    So my thoughts are buy a brand new car, get a loan from the dealer, have free road tax or whatever they are offering and no NCT for a few years...5 is it? Have low APR and have the loan paid back in 2 years.

    So I want a hatchback again, I was thinking about the new Ford Feista:

    (I do like the look of the blue one...I won't lie!!) Are they any good?

    Or...

    Do I buy a 2nd hand car, get a loan from the bank, pay higher road tax and NCT?

    One more question...if I'm buying a new car, and it doesn't include Air Con, and I don't want to pay for it - what's there instead? The windows?

    Thanks for your help!

    You won't save money by buying a new car. Your tax is €200 for the year, a yaris is great on petrol. You could pay €500 a month just to have this car. You won't save money.
